My Little boy will be turning 1 on Monday, January 25th


I need to get back to regular blogging, so sorry if people have checked out my blog and I have not updated in forever. I guess I can say I have been busy, everyone has their own definition of being overwhelmed with stuff to do.

Hudson will be one years old tomorrow, Monday January 25th, I do not know where a year went, honestly. It seems like just yesterday we were bringing him home from the hospital and starting all over again with a little baby. Hudson Tait Anderson was born at 2:57am on Sunday January 25, 2009. I should not say little boy, there was nothing little about him. He weighed in at 9 pounds 14 ounces. Looking back at my labor and delivery I remember finding so much strength in God during my delivery it was an amazing experience. Natural child birth is the way to go if at all possible. I remember every morning after bringing him home his big sister Bailey would ask where Hudson was. I would tell her he was sleeping in his bassinet. Bailey fell in love with her brother at first sight. The bond they have right now is so sweet and I love watching her teach him all she knows. Hudson then went from a lil one to falling asleep in his swing to crawling and putting everything in his mouth. Hudson now at almost a year has mastered the crawling and now he is an avid climber. Later in life this will serve him well. Hopefully he will be an avid hiker or rock climber. The Anderson family likes to hike. We will be venturing out this Spring and Summer on hikes around Washington State. Having a son is so different than a daughter, not just their sex, everything!!!! Hudson captures my heart in a totally different way then my daughter Bailey. Bailey being my first born is my sensitive, loving, kind hearted to all, and empathetic. I could go on forever about my kids, but to try and keep this shorter I will not. Hudson is adventure, never know what is going to happen, and what kind of pickles the boy will get into. Hudson though is so loving towards his sister and mommy and daddy. He can say "dada," really good, but also knows how to say "momma." Watching the two of my kids play and be kids is my joy and great blessing as their mommy. Happy Birthday big boy, I love you from the time I found out I was pregnant....and the rest is history. Have a great day my little man. I love you always. Mommy
